It's done. I feel bad for Byrd because he'll have to move to a block with less customers. Apparently, the city council meeting Tuesday was only to listen to grievances. The meeting where we could have made a difference was a while ago. While I'm glad that people want to do benefit shows, protest, etc., I think the next best thing is to let things run their course so that hopefully in the future there can be an ordinance that will remove the 300 block vendor ban. Making Facebook groups just to bitch and point out things to city council that they'll never see isn't the answer or a constructive way to spend your time. Seeing how the original point has been slanted into a crusade by some of my friends sucks. I feel for Byrd but there's better ways to help.

In the future, I hope that action is taken before the night where a vote is taking place. If the word had been spread in an appropriate manner when the public's voices really counted, maybe Byrd wouldn't have to move on January 1. I consider this matter closed. Don't ask me to take it up any longer.

I wrote this on Twitter after reading the Huff Post article I included in this week's Session. I just think people get pissy about the wrong things sometimes. Kind of like how Paul Walker has been included in multiple things saying how he was a hero along with Nelson Mandella. Wait, what?! It's a tragedy, but Walker isn't on Nelson's level. But I digress.

The Life Of Brian episode of Family Guy was one of the better ones I've seen in years. Of course moronic society wants him back though. I always thought McFarlane had a plan to bring him back; he's a cornerstone. But if they didn't and he returns just to appease people then Fox should start running a poll every week about what viewers want to see each week. @SethMacFarlane and crew are telling stories, they don't need your input on what to do with the show. They got where they are on their own merits; let them steer the vehicle.

I just get so sick of people whining about change. No, I take that back. Meaningless change. If they cut the minimum wage tomorrow, a quarter of the people who signed the Bring Brian Back petition would sign a minimum wage petition. #EndRant
